What I like about it, from what I saw, is that it integrates proofs into everything, not just as a thing you do in Geometry and nowhere else.
Maybe in theory. Not so much in practice. At least not in the city.
I think I might actually say "screw you, prescribed order" and start my Math A class with the concept of logic and proofs. Not formal truth table stuff - that's actually in the Math B curriculum - but the importance of A implies B and THAT'S why B is true.
Hee. I was never so glad as when I got out of geometry and didn't have to do ANY MORE PROOFS!
Fair enough. Still the most important thing you do in high school math. Though i tend to think that proofs, like Hil says, should be integrated throughout the curriculum rather than jammed into one section, so that you don't even know you're doing them when you're doing them - you just prove things by habit.
I did stuff today! And I have been OMG so lazy this whole summer, so this is a bit of an accomplishment.
I put all my books on their shelves (they're not in order, but Not On Floor = Good), threw a bunch of random crap laying on my office floor away, paid (some) bills, dusted my bookshelves, and made two ham sandwiches and a bank deposit (not at once) and showered. And will now watch a movie, and then go to bed before 2 am.
ION, OMG so fucking hot in KC. I made the bank dep about 30 minutes ago (9:30pm) and it's still 95 degrees here. And as humid as Satan's ballsac. Grosssssss.
I brought the rum to the F2F-- Whaler's dark rum has become a staple in our house. good sippin' rum.
It is still very warm in the house.

That man that hath a tongue, I say, is no man,
If with his tongue he cannot win a woman.
Damn skippy.
I just heard that line about two minutes ago. Nice work.
this is the enchilada sauce I make: [link].
vw, I feel I must also pimp TJ's bottled enchilada sauce. It is just the best I have ever tried. So good.
Now I need to go get some taquitos to smother soon.

Excellent timing, Empress. Impressive.

Heh. I read this as "echidna sauce."
